The ingenious methods practiced by
swindlers of late, and the great number
victimized, should be a warning for every
person to exercise Judgment and caution.
Almost daily accounts appear in the news
papers of some new scheme whereby by
people have been swindled out of money.
The safest way is to have nothing to do
with strange peddlers and travelling quack
medicine men. Patronize your town mer-
chants and consult your physician II You
need medical attendance, and run no risk
of being swindled.
-Assemblyman Charles Smith, of New
York, is decorating his new saloon in
most peculiar manner The floor is covered
with small marble blocks. On each slab
hole has been bored, into which a silver
dollar has been firmly cemented. Seven
hundred dollars were required to complete
this decoration. Besides this, the beer
pumps. gas fixtures, ETC., are Ornamented
with silver dollars.

A FAMILY RELIC.

We all know with what pride, and even ten

a piece of cracked china, which TO others may
seem useless, but which, to them, is closely
Identified with the dear old days when they first
"went to housekeeping" An instance, worthy
OF notice, came under the writer's observation
at Salina, Kaasas; A family, IN which Davis
Sewing Machine had been In use for the past is
years, were abont to lose their first born--a
handsome young ladv-by marriage. The ques-
tion arose rs to what the bride should carry to
her new home, rs the particular gift Of father
and mother, II was promptly decided that notll-
Ing could be so appropriate as the sewing ma
chine. The mother looked at the dear old ma
chine, which had served her so faithfully for so
many years; upon which babys wee garments
had been made, and upon which had just been
finished her wedding trosseau. The tears we'll
ed up into her gentle eyes, and she said to the
father, I'VE cannot let it GO" After standing a
moment in silence, tenderly regarding the fam
lily friend, they decided to give their daughter to
carry to her new home, a New High Arm Davis
Vertical-Feed Sewing Machine, feeling assured
that it would be to her in years to come all that
the old machine had been to her parents

Willard Weihe, who Was summoned
to Omaha some DAYS aince by B. B.
Young, for the purpose of playing
couple of solos at the opening concert of
tie Apollo Club. returned home yester-
day. He was highly pleased with his
trip and the reception accorded him by
the people of Omahs. All the papers
we have seen speak in this highest terms
OF his abilities. and there is no room for
doubt as to the sensation he created.
The end OF each solo was the signal for
tbs most Voclferous applause, and
there was repeated the same old story
OF triple encores, and unbounded en-
thugiaSm. He received several latter
ing offers to make his visit permanent
one, and it may be that Omaha will vet
hear more of him. We congratulate
the young gentleman on his success.

Home Made Silk Handkerchiefs.

A note from Mr.. Chalmers, of the
Salt Lake. Silk Factory, says: "since
we started in this place. fifteen months
ago, we have manufactured nearly 700
dozen OF these handkerchiefs. We have
two hand-looms, and employ generally
six hands in all, which has found bread
for eleven souls, and although it has
been a struggle, we are happy in the
fact of our little success and thankful to
our friends who have helped US to push
this industry as far as we have. A little
pore perseverance and little more en-
enlargement, and silk manufacture and
silk culture will become one of our
established industries" The silk hand
kerchiefs turned out at the factory are
not only handsome, but excellent in
manufacture.

berter and G. W. Bennett. The form
Of a circular to send to mine owners,
requesting information and statistics as
to their properties was decided upon.
Mr.. Bamberger moved that a com
mittee Of three be appointed to compile
statistics aud data which would show
the effect Of reduction of the tariff on
lead. The motion was carried; and
Messr~. James, Bamberger and Bennett
were appointed.
a resolution vas introduced By Mr..
MERGE for its action upon the proposed
reduction or abolition Of the tariff on
LEAD. The resolution was unanimously
adopted.
In regard to the manner in which
funds should be raised for the support
of the association, Mr.. James suggested
that superintendent of mines be re-
quested to collect a small sum each
month from each of their employees.
He said that the miners would derive
as mnch benefit from the labors of the
association as the mine owners, and it
vas no mora than right that they should
help to sustain it.
Mr.. &c. Chambers stated that the
miners were already taxed pretty
heavily. and calls were continually
being made Ipon them for contribu-
tions 10 charitable institutions. He
thought that the miners would, as 8
rule. contribute voluntarily, but he was
opposed to making it compulsory.
After some discussion, a finance com
mIttee was appointed, and the matter
referred to it. This committee con-

That Pamphlet,
Journed.

So Brother Dunbar, of Omshs, the pub
Usher for whom toe Herald was acting when
it made its bid of $1,000 for The Chamber OF
Commerce pamphlet, has given up the job,
as he finds ne can rot make both ends meet
He expected to get similar jobs from neigh
boring centres, and Intended to use the
same material fer all as far as possible
But this expectation fell through, hence his
declination to go on with the Salt Lake
work. The matter has been left to Messrs.
]. H. Bennett, FOrhau and Culmer, and the
work will be done somewhere in the east on
such terms as they can make.-SaIs Lake
tribune.
Dunbar & Co. never had the contract;
Dunbar & Co. did not ask THE HERALD
to assist them. THE HERALD had no
contract with Dunbar & Co. on this
pamphlet or any other. The HERALD,
with the Tribune, bid for the work, and
being the better man" got it The
subject Of the book was canvassed after
the awarding OF the contract to TIE
HERALD, and the matter of postage
on the fine and heavy paper to be
used, was rather uufavorsbly COM
mented upon. Furthermore, it was
thought 5000 pamphlets would not bs
sufficient number, and work answer
ing the purpose equally as well ss that
originally designed, and also in greater
numbers, could oe obtained for thesam
money. AS a result, there was desire
to change the proposition, and THE
HERALD was approached by proper
parties with regard to a surrender of its
contract. Desiring, as 1T has ever
done to build up the interests of Utah
for herein THE HERALD realizes that it's
own success rests-this journal cheer
fully acquiesced and yielded its right to
the publication Of the pamphlet. The
whole transaction was friendly SIS it
should be. The Tribune failed in secur-
ling the bid, and the green OF the re-
| jected sutton together with proyerbiaI

lovers of the grand and marvellous.

IN the year this beautiful little lake
with its majestic surroundings, lies
buried under many feet of snow-it is
only during the months of September
and October that any portion of thelake
IS TO be seen, and it was, evidently.
during the latter part of the first named
month-aS the brilliant autumn foliage
plainly testihes-that the artist was
fortunate enough to visit the
scene In the right foreground
are the almost square granite boulders
peculiar to that sections q portion of
these are. covered with thick, heavy
green moss from which the snow has
not long disappeared; behi d these
stand two picturesque pines; to the
right In the foreground is seen the same
granite formation above described, and
this is surmOunted by the brilliant
hued sumac bushes, that seem TO shed
a brilliant glow over the stream of water,
as 1t gently forces its way out from the
emerald-hued lake in the middle dis
lance, and lashes itself into fury as 1t
rushes down the mountain side. From
the point selected by the artist for max.
ing his sketch only small portion of
the lake is visible, but to this be has i'm
parted q color that at once suggests the
great depth and GOODNESS tor which the
lake is noted. Away in the distance are
the picturesque hills from which the
snow has scarcely disappeared.
The other subject is Lake Martha"
viewed from spot rarely painted be-
fore. In the foreground and to the
right are the large dark pine trees,
and against and in front of these is q
clump of trembling asp that forms q
striking and beautiful contrast, and
through which the waters of the lake
Hash and sparkle; to the right the
foliage is nicely handled. The lake Is
slightly ruft1ed by breeze; and in the
center is the island known as the
Indian Crown" surrounded by small
bouidera, and from the front of which
spring up the SIN III pines, which .
poetic imagination has construed into
chiefs feathers. The island, mir
roWed as it is in the water, is striking
feature of the picture. Away in the
distance rise the PERCEPTIONS and
picturesque cliffs, in the crevices aud
ravines of which the snow still ling re-,

We hazard nothing in saying that in

has painted nothing of similar nature
that can approach these two gems in
an artistic sense. He will be pleased to
show them TO all who may call.
